Reviews:

"The tour boasted a colourful array of artists, viciously at odds with the pastel-coloured trousers of British pop at that time, which only serves to increase interest here. The 21 performances from the refreshingly non-competitive roster are best swallowed whole, and the effect is heightened by excellent sleeve notes from James Nice and the late, great journalist Johnny Waller" (Record Collector, 09/2006)

"Something of a slice of musical history, a snapshot of time, and it's nice to go back - read the tour programme, listen to the sounds (all exclusive tracks) and hear how it was done back then. Recommended" (Boomkat, 01/2007)
